The fact they left behind bombs, that luckily didn't go off, is enough to know this wasn't just a random pissed off guy coming back to shoot up a place. I wonder if they were headed back to the scene to get close enough to detonate the bombs with the remote control with police inside. Hopefully they can find some info as to the motive because it's definitely puzzling. 12/3/2015 7:05:46 AM |

Apparently the man was born here in America, and the wife had immigrated from Pakistan. This whole situation just seems...weird.
If this was ISIS related don't you think they would've been all over claiming responsibility by now? 12/3/2015 7:43:31 AM |

It is possible they were just ISIS sympathizers or as I said maybe this wasn't the attack they were supposed to carry out and this guy just winged it after a heated argument thinking this was as good a soft target as any. Who knows, just the whole I got mad and came back to shoot someone angle by itself doesn't make any sense. 12/3/2015 8:14:09 AM |

He was born and raised in America (Illinois) and went to Saudi Arabia last year and came back with this wife. My dumb guess since we are all making them is the wife was radicalized and mind fucked him into it as well.
I was wrong as it seems this is an Islamic terror attack but the whole situation and target is just... weird.

It is especially if your "news source" is more focused on reinforcing a political narrative rather than reporting what happens.

the dude was of south asian descent, and his wife was from pakistan/saudi arabia and they were muslim, so would it really be "suspicous" to see 6 middle-eastern-looking men around his house? I mean, his whole family and many of their friends probably look middle-eastern. If they weren't doing anything obviously suspcious, what would you report? "Hey, my neighbors look middle-eastern and I've seen middle-eastern people hanging around his apartment"?

I mean I get it no one wants to be that neighbor that falsely accuses another neighbor and has cops show up for nothing. I think there is a big difference between seeing other middle eastern people around and someone making loud noises working in their garage late into the night. Whether its shitty or not I feel like if I were middle eastern and a police officer showed up and wanted to at least question why I could be understanding that its better to say something and be wrong then live with knowing you could have stopped something bad from happening. A lot would depend on what the suspicious thing someone thought I was doing though. Granted I would imagine a lot of these neighbors didn't think twice about this stuff until after the fact and now are like ya know there were some signs now that I think of it. 12/3/2015 11:49:56 AM |

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hindsight_bias
Quote : | "Hindsight bias, also known as the knew-it-all-along effect or creeping determinism, is the inclination, after an event has occurred, to see the event as having been predictable, despite there having been little or no objective basis for predicting it.[1][2] It is a multifaceted phenomenon that can affect different stages of designs, processes, contexts, and situations.[3] Hindsight bias may cause memory distortion, where the recollection and reconstruction of content can lead to false theoretical outcomes. It has been suggested that the effect can cause extreme methodological problems while trying to analyze, understand, and interpret results in experimental studies. A basic example of the hindsight bias is when, after viewing the outcome of a potentially unforeseeable event, a person believes he or she "knew it all along". Such examples are present in the writings of historians describing outcomes of battles, physicians recalling clinical trials, and in judicial systems trying to attribute responsibility and predictability of accidents.[4]" |

Originally legally purchased. Those ARs are banned in CA, so they had to have been brought in illegally. So, they were not, in fact, legal guns in that state. 12/3/2015 12:17:12 PM |

I don't want to turn this into a gun control debate but I think we need to settle somewhere in the middle. People should be allowed to own handguns or rifles/shotguns, but I think a good step would be to just outlaw owning of these assault rifles. There is no good reason to have them other than you are obsessed with guns or to easily kill a large number of people. Yes criminals will still find ways to get them but lets at least make it more difficult. 12/3/2015 12:30:02 PM |

Handguns are much more dangerous in these situations given that they are concealable and just as effective shooting up confined "gun free zones". "Assualt" doesn't really mean anything, these are legal semi-automatic rifles. Feel-good legislation doesn't actually do anything.
